EXAMPLE 1

Plant Manager

The customer had started a large improvement program across the company but did not have the driven and experienced managers to lead the change at all sites. C2U was assigned to find a plant manager for one site and after 9 months at the site, the systematic and factbased leadership by the interim manager turned the site from red to black figures.

EXAMPLE 2

Plant Manager

The customer needed help with interim management and to evaluate the present organisation and if needed change it. They wanted a higher speed in the upstart of lean activities and do major improvement work

EXAMPLE 3

Improvement Leader

The customer had decided implement a Lean Production System across the plants in the company. C2U was assigned to take the improvement leader role at several plants in the company to both lead the transformation, but also to set the base. After one year, savings of appr. 17 MSEK was achieved in one of the plants the C2U was leading.

EXAMPLE 4

CEO

When we supported our customer in the acquisition process of a company, a new CEO was needed directly after the purchase. The interim manager from C2U had been a part of the acquisition process and then took on the CEO role for one year. A win-win for both C2U and for the customer as the interim manager had already a good insight of the company working with the acquisition.

EXAMPLE 5

Warehouse Manager

C2U was assigned for a project with a team that together with the customer started an improvement journey. After 5 months C2U was asked to take the Warehouse Manager role for one year to secure the customers improvement journey. This interim role led to next assignment within that company.

EXAMPLE 6

Maintenance Manager

One customer needed a consultant to contribute in a transformation project. The customer wanted a person who had experience as a maintenance manager as well as had worked with methodologies within the maintenance area. After the transformation project the customer wanted the C2U consultant to take an interim position as the maintenance manager until an internal solution could be in place.

EXAMPLE 7

Production Manager

During a Lean transformation assignment for a customer, a need for quick change of the manager position for incoming goods was discovered. C2U could offer a reliable interim manager for 3 months until an internal solution could be in place.

EXAMPLE 8

Quality Manager

The customer needed to build up a stronger quality department and put new ways of working into place. C2U replaced the current quality manager for one year, initiated new work processes and set up a stable base for the replaced manager to return to after securing the knowledge transfer.
